We had an amazing experience with Wildlife Encounters coming to our home for an outreach for my animal-loving son's 6th birthday! Our guide, Desiree, was knowledgeable and knew exactly how to talk to my 6 and 2 year old so that they were engaged and had a wonderful time. My son was absolutely delighted to see and interact with the animals for his birthday and says he cannot wait to see them again! We were very happy with our experience and would highly recommend Wildlife Encounters.

We did the 1 hour private tour with Derek and it was wonderful! We got to see and pet so many different animals. My boys got to feed a porcupine and hold a large snake too! Derek provided so much great information about each animal and even kept my boys, ages 5 and 7, engaged the whole time. Our tour ran over by a little and he didn’t rush us out. He spent the extra time with us so we could see all the desired animals. I highly recommend for all ages! Thank you, Derek, for an awesome experience!

This place is fantastic. I drove from Providence to here to bring my family for my sisters 40th birthday and it was worth the drive.We was guided by Derek who is full of good knowledge and kept the tour very informative. There are many animal encounters and the animals are all awesome . If your thinking about doing a tour it is well worth it. Me and my family can't stop talking about the great time we had.

Derek and 7 of his wildlife friends visited our school in Gilmanton today. Our Summer Enrichment for Teens program absolutely enjoyed their company. The students had the opportunity to hold, touch, and ask many questions about the wildlife friends who visited. Thank you for educating our students and providing them with an experience many do not get to participate in.

This is an exceptional place to visit. I brought my 7 year old son over April vacation and we had so much fun both at the farm and Ecology center. We will be back for sure for future programs.

Took a private tour today at Wildlife Encounters. What a fabulous time had by my kids, myself and our friends. Super knowledgeable hosts and they answered all of our many questions. It was so much better than traveling to a zoo! We got up close and personal with some really soft and not-so-soft animals. Highly suggest taking your kids! Our kids were ages 2-7.

We can’t say enough amazing things about Jenn and Wildlife Encounters! Our visit was fun, informative and a great experience overall. The animals are very well cared for and loved. You can see by the interactions with staff the love goes both ways. I highly recommend booking a private encounter as it was great to have the 1:1 with staff and the animals.

Wonderful experience! We held a bachelorette party there for my animal loving sister. The staff was lovely and incredibly knowledgeable. They are so passionate about the animals and eager to share. We all had a wonderful time meeting the animals and feeding a few ! A unique girls trip experience and highly recommend.

We took the family to Wildlife Encounters to celebrate our son's 10 birthday. They loved getting up close with all the animals and they learned so much. They are still talking about their time there a week later and showing everyone their real life porcupine quill.
